Prosperity through Partnership: Catalyzing U.S.-Algerian Collaboration in Innovation, Commerce and English Language

The U.S. Mission to Algeria is seeking proposals for a grant program that aims to catalyze innovation and commerce between the United States and Algeria, and advance key U.S. foreign policy priorities. The program will focus on three priority areas: advancing commercial diplomacy, promoting English language to strengthen economic, security, and cultural ties, and promoting American innovation in Algeria's technological transformation. The target audiences for this program include Algerian students and young leaders, entrepreneurs, and mid-career professionals.
